Science X Case Study Question 12

The document discusses reproduction in living organisms, highlighting the two main types: asexual and sexual reproduction. It includes a case study with multiple-choice questions related to asexual reproduction, specifically focusing on regeneration and examples of organisms that reproduce asexually. The answers provided clarify concepts such as genetic identity in offspring and the types of organisms involved in asexual reproduction.

CASE STUDY QUESTION 12
Read the following and answer any four questions from 20(i) to 20(v).

Reproduction is a process by which living


organisms are able to produce young ones of their
new kind. Living organisms reproduce by two
ways - asexual reproduction and sexual
reproduction. Asexual reproduction involves the
production of an offspring from a single parent
without the fusion of gametes. This mostly occurs
in unicellular organisms, some plants and certain
multicellular organisms. There are various types of
asexual reproduction.
(i) The type of reproduction shown in the figure is
(a) budding (b) fragmentation (c) regeneration (d) fission.
Ans: (c) regeneration
Regeneration is the process by which small cut parts of body organism grow
to form whole new organisms.

(ii) Which of the following is correct example of the process shown in the given figure?
(a) Hydra (b) Planaria (c) Amoeba (d) Both (a) and (b)
Ans: (d) Both (a) and (b)
Simple animals like Hydra and Planaria can be cut into any number of pieces and
each piece grows into a complete organism by regeneration.
(iii) A feature of reproduction that is common to Amoeba, yeast and bacteria is that
(a) they are all unicellular (b) they are all multicellular
(c) they reproduce only sexually (d) they reproduce asexually.
Ans: (d) they reproduce asexually.

(iv) Asexual reproduction is


(a) a fusion of specialised cells
(b) a method by which all types of organism reproduce
(c) a method producing genetically identical offspring
(d) a method in which more than one parent are involved.

Ans: (c) a method producing genetically identical offspring


In asexual reproduction, the young one receives all its genes from one
parent, so offspring produced are genetically identical to the parents.
(v) From the given list of organisms, those which reproduce by the asexual method are:

(i) Aspergillus (ii) Dog (iii) Papaya (iv) Paramecium

(a) (i) and (ii) (b) (ii) and (iii)


(c) (i) and (iv) (d) (ii), (iii) and (iv)

Ans: (c) (i) and (iv)

Aspergillus and Paramecium reproduce by spore formation and fission


respectively. All these are methods of asexual reproduction. Dog and papaya
reproduces through sexual methods.
